But Mr Justice Bodey has ruled against her. He said £200,000 a year was enough.

The judge had analysed the case at a hearing in the Family Division of the High Court in London.

He has not identified anyone involved in a ruling.

But he said the man was in his 50s and the woman, who grew up in an "affluent" Middle Eastern family, in her 30s.

And he said the boy lived with his mother in London.

"The parties never lived together," said Mr Justice Bodey in his ruling. "The father has never seen (the boy), nor expressed any interest in him.

"The mother, therefore, bears the entire responsibility of caring for him and bringing him up.

"She wishes to do so in a lifestyle commensurate with that of the son of a member of a hugely wealthy Royal Family."

Mr Justice Bodey said the man appeared to rank "pretty clearly among the super-rich" and seemed to move "naturally within a world of opulence".

"Unhappily the mother has a fervent belief that (the boy) and therefore she herself, by way of a carer's allowance, should be allowed a vast income provision to enable (the boy's) lifestyle to replicate that of the father; but almost without regard to the fact that he is a seven-year-old growing up in London," said the judge.

"(She) seeks a box at the Emirates and at Ascot for (the boy), together with membership of Ascot and Wentworth golf club ... (She) refers to needing a nanny/governess/house manager and a housekeeper. She seeks air travel for herself and (the boy), first class return twice a year ... and for economy flights for a nanny/governess."

Mr Justice Bodey said he was satisfied the current amount the man was paying was "suitable and appropriate".
